Relock Bootloader and Warranty

Hi.
Somewhere, I've read that after relocking the Bootloader, one can see that it was unlocked before. Is that really so?
Can someone tell me what the Bootloader status says, after relocking?
I don't want to run that procedure just to be able to see what the status is.
Thanks in advance

You can relock yes, but Motorola already knows that you unlocked it, because you asked them the unlock code giving your IMEI. Relocking is pointless for warranty

If a person chooses to relock, what is the procedure to unlock next time round?
Does one need an unlock code? Does the original one work?

Whats the point to relock? Warranty is void. Just more hassle, because every time you unlock it again it wipes your phone...

According to some, it would be a security measure.
Yes, I understand that the warranty is gone the moment I agree to that on Motorola's site even if I never actually use the code and unlock the phone. The question is from curiosity, really.

Technically, asking for a code doesn't mean you've used it, so it's not a proof of anything.

it doesn't have to be. It is when you request the code that you sign away your warranty. It is in the not-so-small print.

Seems like you're right. They're cheeky bastards

Will OTAs be Installable if we relock?

Relocking the phone won't give your warranty back for 2 reasons.
1) When you have unlocked your device you have asked a code to Motorola (and they have stored your device as unlocked)
2) If you watch on botloader there is a bootloader status (or something similar) that report code 3 (unlocked) and not 0 (not unlocked). If you relock your device the status code remain 3, so it continue to say it was unlocked. Relocked the bootloader haven't any utility (a locked device is a bit more secure but wipe your data everytime for a bit more security isn't so useful and if you want to reunlock it you have to ask the code to Motorola again (IDK if fastbot oem unlock is enought or not)).

I think Huawei have stopped unlocking bootloaders. I believe you can pay third parties to do it, but I don't have any experience with that.

Before removing the service, Huawei was giving the codes for free.

Unfortunately, we do not have a time machine .

Your device is supported, but you must downgrade to lower Oreo update with Google security patch from 04.2018 or older, using Service ROM . (e.g. LLD-L31 8.0.0.128(C432) ) Process will erase all the data from your device!!!
Download link:

(paid service, min. 17euros, and AFAIK, there's no other way to download this Service ROM).

Thank you so much. Downloading now ..

did you can share me this rom ?

Nokia TA-1083 (6.1 plus) free bootloader unlock

Hello,
so I have been looking for a free method to unlock the bootloader on this nokia. In the developer section there is a greyed out "unlock bootloader" option, but can't press it to work. I have registered in official HMD site and also downloaded and installed the application. It sayd that it does not work. So could please anyone tell me how to unlock the BL for free? I have been looking around for long and found some pages but those seems to be a scam.
Greetings.

There's no way to unlock the bootloader on Nokia phones for free, the only way is a paid service.

Yes you'll need to unlock bootloader to do any sort of modification to system or even flash a stock rom by yourself there's no recovery tool nothing.
You should contact @singhnsk for paid unlocks. Frankly any tutorial you'll find on the internet is fake or old those worked on Android 8 and that also you'd need unlock keys which you'll have to buy.
